ICO AI guidance · UK GDPR Article 35; ICO guidance, accountability and governance section
Where AI processing of personal data is likely to result in a high risk to individuals, UK GDPR requires a DPIA before processing begins. The ICO treats most AI involving profiling, large-scale processing or novel technology as meeting this threshold.
EU AI Act · Article 27
Before deploying most Annex III high-risk systems, deployers that are bodies governed by public law or private entities providing public services, and deployers using systems for creditworthiness assessment or life and health insurance pricing, must assess the impact on fundamental rights: the processes, period and frequency of use, categories of affected persons, specific risks of harm, human-oversight measures and mitigation, and notify the market-surveillance authority of the results.
UAE PDPL · Article on data protection impact assessment (reviewer to cite article number)
Before processing that uses modern technologies and is likely to pose a high risk to privacy, controllers must assess the impact on personal data protection, covering the processing, its purposes, risks and safeguards.

EU AI Act · Article 20
A provider that considers, or has reason to consider, that a high-risk system it has placed on the market is not in conformity must immediately correct it, withdraw it, disable it or recall it as appropriate, and inform the distributors, deployers, authorised representative and importers. Where the system presents a risk to health, safety or fundamental rights and the provider becomes aware of that risk, it must immediately investigate the causes together with the reporting deployer and inform the market surveillance authorities and, where relevant, the notified body.
EU AI Act · Article 55(1)(c)
Providers of general-purpose AI models with systemic risk must keep track of, document and report without undue delay to the AI Office and, where relevant, to national competent authorities the relevant information about serious incidents and the possible corrective measures to address them. The General-Purpose AI Code of Practice sets out timelines and content that providers may follow to demonstrate compliance.
California SB 53 · Business and Professions Code, Chapter 25.1 (as added by SB 53)
Frontier developers must report critical safety incidents to the California Office of Emergency Services within the statutory time limit after discovery, and the Office is to establish a reporting mechanism.
EU AI Act · Article 73
Providers of high-risk AI systems must report serious incidents to the market-surveillance authority of the Member State where the incident occurred, immediately after establishing a causal link (or reasonable likelihood) and no later than 15 days after becoming aware, with shorter limits for the most serious cases such as widespread infringements or death. Deployers must inform the provider and authorities when they identify a serious incident.
EU AI Act · Article 26(5)
Deployers must monitor a high-risk AI system's operation against the provider's instructions and feed observations to the provider under Article 72. If they have reason to think the system as used may present a risk to health, safety or fundamental rights, they must inform the provider or distributor and the market surveillance authority without undue delay and suspend use. On a serious incident, they must immediately inform the provider, then the importer or distributor and the authorities. Financial institutions meet this through their internal governance rules.
EU AI Act · Article 72
Providers must establish and document a post-market monitoring system proportionate to the nature of the AI technology and its risks, actively and systematically collecting and analysing performance data throughout the system's lifetime, based on a monitoring plan that is part of the technical documentation. The Commission is to adopt a template for the plan.
Nepal Privacy Act 2075 · Chapter on collection and protection of personal information (reviewer to cite sections)
Personal information may be collected only by authorised persons for a lawful purpose with the individual's consent, and must not be used or disclosed for other purposes without consent, subject to statutory exceptions. AI systems trained on or processing personal data of people in Nepal must respect these limits.

Texas Responsible AI Governance Act (TRAIGA) · Business and Commerce Code Section 551.052
A person may not develop or deploy an AI system in a manner that intentionally aims to incite or encourage a person to commit physical self-harm, including suicide, to harm another person, or to engage in criminal activity. The prohibition turns on the developer's or deployer's intent rather than on the system's effects, which is the pattern followed throughout the Act's prohibited-use provisions.
Texas Responsible AI Governance Act (TRAIGA) · Business and Commerce Code Section 551.056
A person may not develop or deploy an AI system with the intent to unlawfully discriminate against a protected class in violation of state or federal law. A disparate impact on a protected class is not, by itself, sufficient to show an intent to discriminate, and insurers and financial institutions acting under their own regulatory regimes are treated separately.
Texas Responsible AI Governance Act (TRAIGA) · Business and Commerce Code Section 551.057
A person may not develop or distribute an AI system with the sole intent of producing, assisting or aiding in producing, or distributing child pornography or unlawful deep-fake videos or images, including sexually explicit deepfakes of a person without consent, or of engaging in sexually explicit text-based conversations while impersonating or imitating a child, in violation of the Texas Penal Code.
EU AI Act · Article 5
Article 5 bans placing on the market, putting into service or using AI for listed practices, including subliminal or manipulative techniques that cause significant harm, exploitation of vulnerabilities, social scoring by public or private actors leading to detrimental treatment, untargeted scraping of facial images to build recognition databases, emotion recognition in workplaces and education institutions except for medical or safety reasons, biometric categorisation to infer protected characteristics, and real-time remote biometric identification in publicly accessible spaces for law enforcement outside narrow exceptions.
Texas Responsible AI Governance Act (TRAIGA) · Business and Commerce Code Section 551.054
A governmental entity may not develop or deploy an AI system for the purpose of uniquely identifying a specific individual using biometric data, or of gathering images or other media from the internet or another public source without the individual's consent, where doing so would infringe a right guaranteed under the United States or Texas constitutions or violate state or federal law. The Act preserves lawful uses that comply with existing biometric-privacy law.
Texas Responsible AI Governance Act (TRAIGA) · Business and Commerce Code Section 551.053
A governmental entity may not develop or deploy an AI system that evaluates or classifies natural persons or groups on the basis of their social behaviour or personal characteristics, with the intent to calculate or assign a social score or similar valuation that leads to detrimental or unfavourable treatment unrelated to the context in which the data was collected, or that is unjustified or disproportionate to the behaviour.
Filters
A single practical requirement pulled out of an instrument and stated on its own: keep a risk management system, log incidents, document training data, provide human oversight, and so on. Each one cites the article or section it comes from so you can check it against the source.
No, and every obligation is labelled either a legal requirement or voluntary guidance. Voluntary items still matter in practice, because procurement questionnaires and auditors ask about them, but only the binding ones carry legal consequence.
Filter by jurisdiction, category, actor, sector or use case. The applicability check asks a short set of questions and returns the duties that may reach you. It is an educational screen, not a legal determination, and it says so.
Because nobody has broken them out yet. Most instruments are recorded at summary level first; obligations are added jurisdiction by jurisdiction. The coverage and open-gaps pages publish exactly what is missing rather than hiding it.
